Last night , I decided to do something drastic about the pimply scarred horrid face that has been reflected in my mirror for the last 3 months or so. Granted, I never did have perfect skin but ever since I tried trialling a new face product, my face has become overly congested and just plain disgusting.

So anyways, I went to get a dermabrasian which essentially requires a small rotating sandpaper type thing and the girl slowly scraped off layers of my face (or shall we say, SANDPAPERED it off) - as explained in this picture:

It was a horrible experience, and even she sayed that it was only the mildest setting (she actually recommended a much higher setting that was designed to scrape of 2.5mm of my skin - ZOMG!? but I decided to be a baby first). But anyways, the process apparently sandpapered off 3 layers of my skin, leaving it raw, red, exposed and bleeding.

This morning I woke up expecting my skin to have settled down, but it's still red and raw... and bleeding.. I think the bleeding part is the worst - it's not big sections , just small ones.. but because there's lots of little sections, I'm walking around like a walking axe murderer victim :S

Anyways, she said that after 2 days, my skin may darken a little and then over the three days after, would peel ... all in the hope of better skin afterwards.

So I thought i'd share my scraping experience and let u know how it goes later.. :S

In the meantime, if u see me (and yes, I will be at Toan's farewell tonight, and Xin's return tomorrow night, and prolly meeting up with Mish this week) please don't run away or look frightened like me sister did :) I'll try and wear a balaclava in the meantime.
